Hi Guys

Im looking to update the firmware on my RNS 510 and have realised that in doing so i will loose my European maps, as my unit didn't come with any DVD is there any way I can backup the maps to a sd card before I update the firmware?

vRS Carl:
Not all firmwares remove the maps.

272x doesn't for definate. Pretty sure 268x & 276x don't either.

What version is your RNS

coop:
You advised me on another post to go for 2760. I'm on veer c. Cheers

vRS Carl:
If you have a version C RNS it should upgrade fine.

Just ensure you have a genuine unit. Check the security seals and if they are intact you will be fine to upgrade. If they are not you risk bricking the device as it may have had it's EEPROM soldered to reset the security code :happy2:
